ACCESS POINTS
802.11ac speeds — at a new low price point

Today’s wireless LANs are under more pressure than ever before to support more users, more devices and more
bandwidth-hungry applications. Help your customers keep up with this demand by deploying next generation
802.11ac speeds at a minimum cost. Our AP 7532 and AP 7522 802.11ac access points are creating a brand new price
point in the 802.11ac market — in many cases offering 802.11ac speeds at half the cost of the competitors. The 802.11n
radio ensures backward compatibility with every mobile device in use in operation today, while advanced 256 QAM
modulation technology boosts the bandwidth of the 802.11n radio to 802.11ac levels. The result is a new level of
capacity and performance for the wireless LAN — at a new low cost.
